Like PTStitcher and [[PTmender]], nona performs geometrical and photometric distortions on photos and writes the output to image files. The parameters are specified in a .pto project file, i.e. nona doesn't decide what the distortions are going to be, it just does the ''remapping'' part of the stitching process. The format of the project file is documented here: http://hugin.sourceforge.net/docs/nona/nona.txt.

nona
is a drop-in replacement for PTStitcher and is part of Hugin. There is a nona_gui version that provides the same dialog boxes as the Windows/Mac versions of PTStitcher.

Like PTStitcher and PTmender, nona performs geometrical and photometric distortions on photos and writes the output to image files. The parameters are specified in a .pto project file, i.e. nona doesn't decide what the distortions are going to be, it just does the remapping part of the stitching process. The format of the project file is documented here: PTStitcher Example_Script, with an older version here: http://hugin.sourceforge.net/docs/nona/nona.txt.

Advantages

Unlike PTStitcher, nona has full source-code availability, this means that it can be used on many more platforms such as OS X, Linux x86_64, linux powerpc, Solaris and IRIX.

When set to use cropped TIFF output, nona doesn't perform expensive transformation calculations for unused areas of output images. For panoramas consisting of many source photos this can speed things up greatly.
